It is very likely that the child will be overweight if it has overweight parents. Obviously eating habits of overweight people are passed on to their children along with genes and the lack of motivation for physical activity.

Yes, it is more likely, but it is not guaranteed. Children pick up most of their habits (and genes) from their parents. They are most likely born with an over-eating gene (if you believe in the nature debate) and if the parents overeat, the children are likely to pick up that habit (the nurture debate).
